Chapter 824: Or War
Li Zhong played Zhao Xun alone and gave his own opinions and suggestions on the matter of Qianzhou.
Wei Wennan has been in charge of the local military and political power for a long time, and among the envoys of many feudal towns, it is also prestigious, very famous, and has always been loyal to the court and the country.
Li Zhong has two truths, first, the attitude of the imperial court must be tough, and it must be thoroughly investigated, to the late Wei Wennan, and everyone in the world, a clear answer and explanation, the emperor directly issued a Zhao, summoned Shi Hu and related personnel to Beijing immediately to be examined, if Shi Hu is willing to come by order, things will be easy to do, at least it shows that Shi Hu is still afraid of the imperial court in his heart, and he still does not have much disagreement with the country, if he does not come, it proves that Shi Hu has a ghost in his heart, and Wei Wennan's death may be inseparable from him.
Second, Wei Wennan's death may have nothing to do with Shi Hu, but was done by others, but whether it has anything to do with it or not, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that Shi Hu took advantage of Wei Wennan's death to wantonly exclude dissidents, kill the generals in the army who refused to obey him, and forcibly took over the entire military and political power in Qianzhou.
Li Zhong suggested that Zhao Xun that the imperial court could make two preparations, one was to immediately issue a Zhao and summon Shi Hu to enter Beijing immediately, and the other was to secretly order Chenzhou Jiedu to make Lu Xian want to start gathering troops and pay close attention to and guard against the movements of Qianzhou.
Zhao Bo'an, the king of Hong'an County, was in Huaibei's hometown at this time for his wife's funeral, the emperor can send someone to secretly go to the decree, let him immediately rush to the south of the Yangtze River, although Zhao Bo'an has been out of office as the envoy of Hong and Jiang Jiedu for several years, but his influence in Jiangnan is still huge, once he speaks, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Hong and Jiang who have been operating for many years must be a hundred responses, and the group will move.
Regarding Li Zhong's suggestion, Zhao Xun neither agreed nor objected, but forwarded it to the Ministry of War and asked the Ministry of War to discuss one or two first.
Li Xun put down the fold in his hand, and there was a contemplative look on his face.
Zhao Xun did not transfer Li Zhong's recital to the political affairs hall, but gave it directly to Li Xun, obviously wanting to listen to Li Xun's opinions and opinions first.
The meaning of what Li Zhong said in the twists and turns is actually very clear, that is, putting aside Wei Wennan's death for the time being, the imperial court's attitude towards Shi Hu's actions must be tough, and immediately organize the army to give a thunderous blow.
Li Zhong suggested that Zhao Xun dispatch Zhao Bo'an, the armies of Hong and Jiang, as well as the army of LΓΌ Xianyao, the envoy of Chenzhou Jiedu, and the two sides combined with 50,000 people, one east and one north to besiege Qianzhou, and forcibly forced Shi Hu to give in.
Li Xun guessed, perhaps in Li Zhong's view, Shi Hu will inevitably rebel, since this is the case, it is better to strike first, do a good job in advance of the deployment and prevention of the army, once Shi Hu has any abnormal moves, you can immediately launch an attack, do not give Shi Hu any military advance and retreat, control the war in Qianzhou, do not expand, and quickly resolve the battle.
Zhao Xun did not make any response to Li Zhong's twists and turns, but transferred it to Li Xun, the meaning is also obvious, Zhao Xun did not want to start a war, but he felt that what Li Zhong said was also somewhat reasonable, so Zhao Xun was conflicted in his heart, in a dilemma, and couldn't make up his mind, and at the meeting two days ago, Zhao Xun had already made a decision, and also sent officials to Lingnan to investigate the situation.
Sima Tu took advantage of Li Xun's contemplation to take Li Zhong's recital and watch, and after reading it, Sima Tu shook his head: "Li Zhong didn't say it before, wait for the emperor to make a decision, and now he has such a recital, no matter how good the suggestion is, I'm afraid the emperor will not accept his favor." β
Li Xun said: "You don't know the situation at that time, for Shi Hu's matter, Li Zhong just made a start, that is, he was opposed by most of the ministers, the emperor's attitude was unclear, and no matter how many suggestions he had, it was not good to say much at that time." β
During this time, the relationship between Li Zhong and Zhao Xun was quite cold, this atmosphere was deliberately done by Zhao Xun, and Li Zhong obviously felt Zhao Xun's alienation and indifference to him, he should have understood that Zhao Xun was suspicious of himself, so since that quarrel, Li Zhong has been very low-key during this time, and it can also be said that he is very low-key.
Sima Tu nodded, put the fold aside, and then said to Li Xun: "The lord has read Li Zhong's fold, what do you think?" β
Li Xun thought for a while and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" β
Sima Tu said with a smile: "The emperor handed over Li Zhong's recital to the lord, obviously wanting to hear the lord's advice, this is a little strange, there are so many people in the Manchu Dynasty, the emperor chose the lord, what does this mean?" β
Li Xun rolled his eyes, feeling that Sima Tu was looking down on himself, and immediately laughed angrily: "What are you talking about, from the fifth year of Chengping to the present, there have been more than a dozen wars, large and small, but I have not lost once, and I can be regarded as a victorious general, and I am also a little famous in the court, the emperor found me and wanted to listen to my advice, what is there to make a fuss about?" β
Sima Tu smiled, he knew that Li Xun was not really angry, so he said: "The emperor handed over the fold to the lord, maybe there are other purposes. β
Li Xun had already guessed this, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Prepare, you will follow me to see Li Zhong later." β
"Yes, my lord."
Sima Tu got up and saluted, then left the study.
The relationship between Zhao Xun and Li Zhong is a little awkward now.
Li Zhong is in charge of the military power of the entire Fengjing, this right is too big, as the emperor, there is no fear and suspicion in his heart, it is impossible, plus Li Zhong's character is a little too upright, in the handling of some things, Zhao Xun originally wanted to deal with it gently, but in the end it changed, and the relationship between Zhao Xun and Li Zhong became what it is today.
However, Zhao Xun is still very convinced of Li Zhong's military talent, if the war between the imperial court and Shi Hu is inevitable, how to fight, what methods and strategies to fight, Zhao Xun still values Li Zhong's opinion more in his heart, but because the relationship between the two is a little embarrassing now, Zhao Xun, as the emperor, must have a good face, where is embarrassed to go directly to Li Zhong, so he transferred Li Zhong's twists and turns to Li Xun, the intention is to let Li Xun go to see Li Zhong, and get useful advice from Li Zhong through Li Xun.
